Episode 2374: Jay and Heather Harrington highlight the importance of praising children for their effort rather than innate abilities. Drawing from research, they explain how "process praise" fosters a growth mindset, intrinsic motivation, and helps kids prioritize meaning over happiness. This approach encourages long-term resilience, helping children navigate challenges without over-relying on external validation. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.lifeandwhim.com/first-moments-blog/raising-well-adjusted-motivated-children-3-reasons-to-praise-the-process-not-the-pers Quotes to ponder: "When we praise children for their intelligence, we tell them that this is the name of the game: look smart, don't risk making mistakes." "Process praise celebrates kids for effort and the processes they use to learn and grow." "Meaning and happiness are not the same thing. People who lead meaningful lives tend to be happy, but these two qualities do not always correlate."

Episode 2245: Dr. Laura Markham highlights the importance of modeling healthy conflict resolution for children, emphasizing that respectful disagreements followed by affectionate reconciliation can teach valuable lessons. Even non-yelling conflicts can be upsetting to children, but showing resolution and repair helps them understand and cope with conflicts constructively. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.peacefulparenthappykids.com/read/fight-with-partner-learning-modeling-for-child Quotes to ponder: "It's never appropriate to dump anger on another person, in front of your kids or not." "If we handle our disagreements with respect and good will, looking for solutions instead of blame, children will recover." "Anyone can get angry, but we can take responsibility for our own emotions, apologize, and re-connect."

V dnešní epizodě podcastu Rodičovská posilovna si psycholožka Ivana Štefková povídala s psychoterapeutem Janem Vávrou. Řeč byla o lhaní dětí rodičům a celkově o lžích a jejich významu v lidském vývoji a nejčastějších důvodech proč děti lžou rodičům, ale také o tom, jak můžeme podporovat upřímnost v rodině, a lžím předcházet. Inspirováni byli tentokrát knihou Paula Ekmana – Why kids lie – How parents can encourage truthfulness, ale také kapitolou knihy Nurture Shock od Po Bronsona a Ashley Merryman, která pojednává o výzkumech lží. Tyto výzkumy provádí především Dr. Victoria Talwar a informace o nich jsou na www.talwarresearch.com. Honza a Ivana spolu připravují kurzy odolnosti a Rodičovskou posilovnu – www.rodicovskaposilovna.cz

You already know how important a good night's sleep is. But how much is enough? This episode begins with some startling information about how just 15 minutes more sleep per night can make a big difference. https://conservancy.umn.edu/handle/11299/162769 We all want pleasure in life. In fact, most of us have a lot of pleasure. Maybe too much pleasure. And all that pleasure can make you miserable according to Dr. Anna Lembke. She is a psychiatrist and medical director of the Stanford Addiction Medicine and author of the bestselling book Dopamine Nation (https://amzn.to/3BahOhY). Listen as she explains how humans are not designed to have unending pleasure whether it's technology or food or anything else. She has some interesting thoughts about why this is such a problem and how we can best deal with all this pleasure. What if credit cards were called “loan cards” instead? Chances are you wouldn't use them as freely according to Eesha Sharma a marketing professor at San Diego State University. Eesha's research revolves around financial wellbeing and how people react to perceived scarcity and deprivation. Her research as appeared in top journals and publications. Listen as she offers some great insight into how we think about and use money that I think will surprise you. Eesha's Twitter handle is @EeshaSharma. Most parents feel good if their kids watch “educational” TV or video programs. Yet one study found something that parents might find a little disturbing. In fact it was so disturbing that some of the researchers changed their kids' viewing habits after seeing the results. Listen as I explain.

Let's have a different conversation.....about race! Conversations about race are incredibly uncomfortable, which is exactly why we ought to have more meaningful conversations about it. Why on a mental health podcast? Because your discomfort is a sign you have work to do on yourself and this is a way to do just that. So let's dig in and have a different conversation about race, especially us white people who avoid them the most as many studies have shown. When we show up better when we show up where it's uncomfortable.....we grow, expand and elevate our life experience.

Introduction Welcome. Doc Smo here, your pedcast host. I had an amazingly gratifying experience recently that I want to share with you, especially if your child is struggling in school. In today's pedcast, we are going to talk about some simple parenting task that is bound to help your children. Curious about what those tasks could be?  Then stay tuned to learn more in today's installment of Portable Practical Pediatrics.  Musical Introduction A Routine Talk Turns Extraordinary Recently, I was asked to speak to a group of parents of “at risk children” who had come to a family education evening to talk about how to maximize their children's performance in school. We talked about the research that has been discussed on this blog many times. Specifically, I wanted to stress the factors that parents have control of that have been shown to improve a child's academic achievement; -Keeping TV's out of a child's bedroom and limiting screen time -Getting an adequate amount of physical activity and unstructured play -Having a diet rich with unprocessed foods -Getting an adequate amount of sleep. Well, the night this event occurred was actually the second time I had spoken at this church and talked about this topic. A Testimonial I thought my first talk with this group of parents had gone pretty well but I had no idea of how well.  At the onset of my next visit with these parents, an amazing thing happened.  Before we got into the talk, an older gentleman raised his hand and told me he had a testimonial to share. That's what he called it, a "Testimonial". He told the audience and me that he and his wife were raising their grandson who was currently in 4th grade and not doing very well academically. He said that he and his wife had decided, after hearing my first talk, to try getting their grandson a structured regular bedtime, free of screens and junk food to see what would happen. Specifically, they wanted to get him to bed early enough for him to get up the next morning without a fight. That was their goal. To do this, they completely restructured his bedtime: they removed the TV from his room and cut off screen time after 7pm. they insisted that he was to eat all of his food at dinner and was to get nothing no more after that. Bedtime was set at 8pm and enforced. Lights out and time to sleep.   After doing all of this, they said the transition was nothing short of miraculous. He almost immediately stopped fighting about getting ready for school in the morning and actually woke up in the morning on his own. He also stopped fighting about going to sleep.  And the best thing is that his grades showed an immediate improvement. Whereas he had been struggling to keep up in school, now he was getting good grades! They said even his personality was more pleasant. They attributed all of this great stuff to him having a regular bedtime and adequate sleep. They had no idea that not having a structured bedtime, letting him play video games late into the evening, eating junk food at night, and falling asleep in front of screens was so detrimental to him.   An Amazing Statistic Some of you may have read the book Nurture Shock. I wrote a book review about it a few years ago.  Listen to this shocking statistic that the authors of Nurture Shock discovered: a school aged child who has a one hour sleep deprivation on a chronic basis will, on average, perform 2 years younger than their chronologic age cognitively. That means that a 6th grader will perform like a 4th grader academically if they get 1 hour less sleep at night on a chronic basis.  Clearly, sleep deprivation is having a major impact on a young child's brain. Case closed and the young man in this story was probably a good example of sleep deprivation that was cognitively impairing. Whatever it was, it is great to see him doing so much better in school. A Parents Call to Action So here is my call to action for parents who have not developed a structured an...

This week, one for the hardworkin' parents out there, as Glenn Murphy and wellness guru Howard Jacobson address the challenges, similiarities, and reciprocal benefits of Systema and parenting. Along the way, we delve into: what Systema can teach us about being good parents command and conquer vs engage and redirect parenting the role of movement in managing overwhelming emotions avoiding the traps of stubbornness and pride why too much praise is harmful to kids, and to Systema trainees Mentioned in this episode:The Whole Brain Child by Daniel Siegel and Tina Bryson

They had no idea that not having a structured bedtime, letting him play video games late into the evening, eating junk food at night, and falling asleep in front of screens was so detrimental to him.   An Amazing Statistic Some of you may have read the book Nurture Shock. I wrote a book review about it a few years ago.  Listen to this shocking statistic that the authors of Nurture Shock discovered: a school aged child who has a one hour sleep deprivation on a chronic basis will, on average, perform 2 years younger than their chronologic age cognitively. That means that a 6th grader will perform like a 4th grader academically if they get 1 hour less sleep at night on a chronic basis.  Clearly, sleep deprivation is having a major impact on a young child's brain. Case closed and the young man in this story was probably a good example of sleep deprivation that was cognitively impairing. Whatever it was, it is great to see him doing so much better in school. A Parents Call to Action So here is my call to action for parents who have not developed a structured an...

Dr. Reedy completes his series on Nurture Shock, talking about the chapter on The Science of Teen Rebellion. Neuro-biological issues as well as how parents can reconsider the value of conflict and oppositionality in a child's development are discussed.

In the second part of his review of "Nurture Shock," Dr. Reedy discusses why children lie and how parents can best encourage honesty.

Dr. Reedy discusses the first chapter in Nurture Shock: "The Inverse Power of Praise." Self-esteem, growth mindset, and how to and not to praise children to increase resiliency, frustration tolerance, and effort are discussed.

Why are we wired by God to spend one third of our lives essentially doing nothing?How can one simple key enhance spiritual formation, combat childhood obesity, improve children's school performance, combat neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease, along with decreasing clinical depression in teens and adults? One thing??What is it?Healthy sleep…The importance of sleep from a spiritual, physical, and emotional health perspective. The latest brain research is bringing new insight into sleep research and we are discovering good sleep may be the missing key ingredient to the overall health of people today. Using the latest brain and sleep research, with special insight from "The Good and Beautiful God," James Bryant Smith, and "Nurture Shock," Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman, I speak on the benefits of sleep for adults and children.

The American Academy of Pediatrics just updated its screen time recommendations – and, for the first time, we can actually see and understand the research on which the recommendations are based. They’re a bit more nuanced than the previous versions, so join me as we walk through what the recommendations mean for parents of babies and toddlers – whether or not your children have been using screens until now. We’ll look at the impact particularly of TV on cognitive development, obesity, and prosocial vs. antisocial behavior. News flash: if you’re not watching and discussing shows WITH your child, he may be learning antisocial behavior from even the most innocuous of PBS programming. This is the first in a two-part series on screen time. Here we focus on what science says about the impacts on development. In the second part we’ll examine what we can do about mitigating these impacts and on harnessing some of the good that digital media can do for our kids, since they are growing up in a world where the use of digital media is a fact of life.

NurtureShock – New Thinking About Children is one of today's hottest books on parenting, kids, and education. In it, our guest, Ashley Merryman and co-author Po Bronson use the latest science to debunk much of the conventional wisdom that is behind the way we raise and educate our kids. For example, we think praising our […] The post 30 Minute Mom – NurtureShock – New Thinking About Children – Meet co-author Ashley Merryman! appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

Segment A: A tired child is a cranky child. It's nothing new to parents, but some scientists say they're finding children with chronic sleep problems have a raised risk of developing a mental illness later in life. "The brains of children are far more plastic and amenable to change," says Dr. Candice Alfano, assistant professor of psychology and pediatrics at Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. Dr. Alfano is also the director of the center's Child and Adolescent Anxiety Program and she will join us to talk about recent studies and programs at the center and the importance of a good night's sleep for your child. Segment B: In bestselling author Po Bronson's new book, "NurtureShock," the central premise is that many of modern society's strategies for nurturing children are backfiring because key twists in the science of it have been overlooked. The book covers a variety of counterintuitive topics, and relates to all stages of childhood, from toddlers to teens. During this half-hour, we'll talk with Po Bronson about his new book and take your calls at 440-2665 or 1-800-940-2240.

We're kicking off the fifth season of The Mojo Mom Podcast!  We wish a fond farewell to co-host Sheryl Grant who is starting grad school full time.  Amy welcomes her new co-host Patty Ayers.  Amy and Patty have worked together behind the scenes for many years and are excited to talk about current issues together on the podcast.  In this episode they talk about Patty's empty-nester move to Mexico (you can see photos on Patty's blog) and then discuss the controversy that erupted this week about a breastfeeding mother who was fired by the Totes/Isotoner corporation for taking "unauthorized" breaks to pump her milk.Then Mojo Mom talks to Po Bronson, co-author of NurtureShock:  New Thinking about Children.  In this important new book, Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman bring to light new scientific findings that can change the way we view child development.

Wh a t a n honor to meet this meg a -bestselling a uthor in person in Los A ngeles a nd cr a nk out a n interesting podc a st! Ashley has be en spreading the word about her two very important books for over a decade , speaking and consulting internationally to sports teams, business leaders, and parent and school groups. She also operates a cool non-profit tutoring program for inner city kids in LA. Her books , written with Stanford professor Po Bronson, have rocked our world and make us rethink the most basic notions about parenting and the nature of healthy competition. Interested researchers and readers are transcending dated and harmful cultural values and embraced the new possibilities comm unicated wonderfully by Ashley and Po. The first book was called Nurtureshock : New Thinking About Children. The world of Carol Dweck , Stanford professor and author of Mindset , was highlighted. The idea that this effusive praise, obsession with boosting self-esteem, and helicopter parenting to ensure kids don’t suffer or fail was called into question. Kids need healthy struggle and setbacks to grow and develop resilience and determination. They benefit from adopting a “growth mindset,” where the emphasis is on effort and improvement rather than results. The research from Nurtureshock was the inspiration for the next book, Top Dog. If you are interested in competition and peak performance in any area (business, athletics, parenting), this book will provide lasting insights and strategies to be the best you can be, and not succumb to the dangers of a lame, ineffective approach to competition. Interestingly, Ashley relates that she has been rethinking the emphasis placed on effort and instead prefers to focus on improvement. We all know how misdirected effort may not lead to improvement and can even be unhealthy—such as with an overtrained athlete or the college student who pulls all-nighters and eats Top Ramen in the name of delivering maximum effort. In these examples, excess effort or a narrow focus on effort alone will not lead to success or happiness. Reference my podcast about the Japanese Soccer Team ( https://www.bradkearns.com/2018/08/21/breather-the-japanese-soccer-teams-clean-locker-room-and-evolved-competitive-spirit/ ) and the Japanese cultural ethic of doryoku , translated as honorable effort. You could infer this means dispensing effort in a focused and productive manner to stimulate improvement. Ashley garnered attention years ago for stating that the long-standing practice of giving every kid a trophy is a bad idea. After much reflection and controversy, Ashley is more certain than ever that this is a really bad idea! Listen to her go off about the many ways in which our cultural trophy policy cheapens the experience for everyone. We also get into the groundbreaking article that changed my mindset and approach to parenting on the spot when I first read it in 2007. It’s called the Inverse Power of Praise and I did a blog post about it that I send to anyone who will listen. This article led to the NurtureShock book project. The article calls into question the self-esteem movement that has led to the widespread concerns about helicopter parenting today. Ashley talks about how to set rewards to generate optimum outcomes for competition. A local 5k promoting a healthy community (everyone gets a finisher medal, that’s fine), versus a contest to discover the most distinguished performers. A college application process for an Ivy League admission could be a good example: many competitors, few prizes. You will love this show and be compelled to grab these books and go in for a deep immersion. Following is some details about Ashley and Po’s work, and accolades, to get you excited about Ashley and Po’s work: Ashley and Po have won nine national awards for reporting. Merryman's been on countless radio and television shows, while email, Facebook, and Twitter are filled with demands to read her essays, such as "Losing is Good for You," "How Not to Talk to Your Kids," and "Creativity Crisis." Among the awards for Top Dog was a "Best Book of the Month" by both Barnes & Noble and Amazon, while Salary.com said it was the #1 book that every entrepreneur must read. Top Dog is an astonishing blend of science and storytelling that reveals what's really in the heart of a champion. It's about the thrill of victory and the character-building agony of defeat. Testosterone and the neuroscience of mistakes. Why rivals motivate. How home field advantage gets you a raise. What teamwork really requires. It's baseball, Wall Street financial analysts, the SAT, sales contests, and Linux software. How before da Vinci and FedEx were innovators, first, they were great competitors. Olympians, professional athletes, and their coaches are already carrying Top Dog around in gym bags. It's in the briefcases of Wall Street traders and Madison Ave. madmen. Professional risk takers - from Silicon Valley venture capitalists to Vegas gamblers - are racing to master its ideas, while educators and philosophers are debating it the halls of academia. Merryman and Bronson's previous book, NurtureShock : New Thinking About Children, is also a New York Times bestseller, translated into sixteen languages to date. But beyond that, it has become one of the most influential books about children ever been published. With impeccable storytelling and razor-sharp analysis, Merryman and Bronson demonstrate that many of modern society's strategies for nurturing children are in fact backfiring--because key twists in the science have been overlooked. Merryman has written for Newsweek, Time , the New York Times , the Washington Post, New York, the Guardian, and many more. A frequent commentator on radio and television, Merryman has appeared on shows such as: Fox & Friends; CNN's AC 360 and CNN Newsroom; The Charlie Rose Show; The Tavis Smiley Show; @ KatieCouric ; Canada AM; BBC World News; NPR's Tell Me More and On Point; and many others around the world. Honors for Merryman and Bronson include: the PEN Center USA Literary Award for Journalism; the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Award for Science Journalism; an "Audie" from the Audio Publishers Association; and two Clarion Awards. And their work is considered so substantial that scientists themselves rely on their reporting. Their work has been cited as a research authority in 80 academic journals and 260 books, and it is being used as text in universities around the world. You'll find references to their work in publications by the White House to speeches by politicians around the globe. Merryman lives in Los Angeles, where she has directed a small all-volunteer tutoring program for inner-city kids for 15 years ; in that time, her program has helped over 800 children. For her civic involvement, she received commendations from both the Clinton and Bush Administrations. An attorney, Merryman previously served as a speechwriter in the Clinton Administration. Merryman holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts, a J.D. from the Georgetown University's Law Center, and a Certificate in Irish Studies from Queen's University, Belfast, Northern Ireland.

*An interesting mix of questions gives an opportunity to sound off on important insights covered in previous shows.* First, a cross country skier says hills and altitude causing elevated heart rates can require possibly more dietary carbs? I say find a way to slow down - same for me on the mountain bike! Gabrielle the super mum from Aussie land references the great show about Ashley Merryman and Po Bronson’s insights about effort-based praise in the book Nurtureshock ( https://www.amazon.com/NurtureShock-New-Thinking-About-Children/dp/0446504130/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Nurtureshock&qid=1592426009&sr=8-1 ) and the epic 2007 New York Magazine article, The Power (And Peril) Of Praising Your Kids ( https://nymag.com/news/features/27840/ ) , that changed my approach to parenting forever. Gabrielle makes great points about separating specific praise with declarations of love and also being proud of a child’s character instead of achievements. I mention how I’ve had incredibly disparate guests on the show, like vegan advocate Rip Esselstyn ( https://www.bradkearns.com/2019/11/12/ripesselstyn/ ) and carnivore leaders Dr. Paul Saladino ( https://www.bradkearns.com/2019/05/28/saladino/ ) and Dr. Shawn Baker ( https://www.bradkearns.com/2020/03/24/dr-shawn-baker-carnivore-for-healing-and-athletic-performance/ ). I reflect that I’m not an “in your face” host getting into controversy with my guests, as I prefer to cultivate an open mind and willingness to appreciate alternate points of view. Obviously, Rip and I have drastically disparate positions on healthy eating, but during our show and with our friendship, I prefer to focus on the incredible work he has done to motivate and inspire people to be healthy, and the common ground that we do share about healthy eating and living. Hopefully if I need to be badass at some point I will step up, we’ll see! Another commenter remembers the great show with boy wonder health expert Matt Maruca ( https://www.bradkearns.com/2020/03/10/matt-maruca/ ) , founder of RAOptics.com, and how he is taking Matt’s message to his adult kids and himself. He also notes his excitement for my next venture into food, Brad’s Macadamia Mix, a combination of superfoods blended together to form the most delectable, nutrient rich nut butter. Seriously, this stuff is so delicious you will be eating it straight out of the jar. Stay tuned for that, and keep the questions coming - I love receiving, and reading through such compelling commentary, so email ( getoveryourselfpodcast@gmail.com ) your feedback and any and all questions you have. *TIMESTAMPS:* Wade, a Nordic skier, has a question about maintaining heart rate.  Is a low carb diet approach consistent with the extreme metabolic demands of this athlete?  [06:12] Even with altitude and hills, it’s important to continue to maintain the heart rate under the aerobic maximum. [08:39] What is the role of carbohydrates in the lifestyle of a high performing athlete? [10:10] Females need to pay particular heed in order to be fit for reproduction. [14:31] Gabrielle asks about the parenting podcast where the message is:  When praising kids, saying you’re proud of them specifically on their achievement is ill-advised. [18:01] Should you tell your daughter she is pretty, when our culture tends to traffic on looks? [19:53] Be careful connecting “I love you” with the talent, rather than the effort, as this damages self-esteem.  [22:14] Brad is suggesting we keep an open mind on vegan, vegetarian, carnivore diets. [23:31] John is getting back into triathlon and working on getting competitive while staying healthy.
